I ZS why mourners for fin .are blefJcd. d. op ofinercy .how tweet is ir, now'ri; wo th more then ten thoufand thouiand.worlds ; Any one drop of the blood of Je- fus Chriti now apiayed to the foule how iweere is it, well blef- fed is that difpofition that thall make thar'blood of Chrif' to be iweete. Wee preach .Jefus Chritt and the 'Glorious myfte- ries of Grace and ialy Lion co you from time to tine, and how. lightly are thole precious truths regarded by many thoufands, you can come and heare them and go:: away and your hearts not at all taken with them , but now were you among thofe mourners you would prize the trunk that fall from the Table; a few of thole truths that are difregarded now would be high- ly effeníed then, and more worth then thoufands of thou- fands of worlds unto you.
